The classes and instruction from the instructors
It helps me to get in shape and keep this old body moving in a positive way and it's less than two miles from my house.
Lots of ways to exercise; friendly staff.

A very clean facility.
Friendly staff. Quality equipment. Pleasant well kept environment. Friendly members and good comradery. Well planned events. Enjoyed the Senior Prom recently
I’m a newcomer to this area from GA who is so excited to use the variety exercise equipments. Seeing personal trainers in the area for questions about the equipment I don’t understand how to use. I truly love the aerobics swim class in warm water, the swim suit wringer, and the fact that there are clean locker rooms and bathroom facilities. I have shared my recent excitement as well as pictures from me attending the SENIOR PROM for the 1st time, which I am so looking forward to hopefully seeing happen again next year. All around so far I have enjoyed seeing all the amazing group classes you offer and look forward to participating in soon. Thank You for all you offer with my membership.
The Ft Monroe Y is near my home, and I like the availability of the studio floor for mat exercise as well as the overall stock of equipment.

The equipment and the staff. And now 24 hour access!
In a previous survey I asked for no use of cell phone while on the exercise machines. The use of cell phones prevents other members from using the machines as the phone user will sit there occupying the machine for approximately 7-10 minutes at the start before he/she exercises and then the same between sets. This usually means 20+ minutes of phone time per machine. There are several members I know and a few I don't know that on the floor have said the same thing to me about cell phone users. They aren't talking on their phones but reading emails and searching the internet, I've looked over their shoulder to see.
The signs the YMCA put out I assume concerning cell phone are so cryptic that they have been ignored. "Lift first Scroll Later Please allow others to workout on the equipment in between sets" is to vague. The cell phone users don't get the point. More specific signs about cell phone usage need to be put out. I do understand a person may get a text that needs an immediate reply but that doesn't take 20+ minutes.
Friendly, clean
The friendly staff, cleanliness, location.
